    Hi everyone, I have a 2017 trd sport and I’ve been hearing a noise at low speed from the front end of the truck. The noise sounds like metal to metal rubbing/clunking and seems to be getting worse over time. *see video* https://www.reddit.com/r/Tacomaworld/s/lka82n1Hfg

    Try to check your heat shields. I just had this issue. Mine was making noise at higher speeds, but it would also depend on vibration, wind, terrain type. They are known to corrode and make a bigger through hole for the nut/bolt and won’t be fastened anymore.

    Check front body mounts. Sounds like metal on metal squeak when they fail. Do a search on here. It's a common issue
